🐾 Step-by-Step Instructions (Quick Guide)
-
Wrap the Sock
Open the sock and wrap it around the hock joint on the lower hind leg. Make sure the cord loop stays in front of the leg. -
Secure the Straps
Fasten the straps in order: bottom, top, then (if present) the third strap below the hock. -
Add Padding
Wrap the fleece pad around the toe section of the cord loop for extra comfort. -
Position the Loop
Place the cord loop under and around the middle two toes. -

Gently pull the cord until your dog reacts with a paw lift. If there’s no reaction, tighten slightly and test again.
🧼 Usage Tip
